Have you ever heard from some crazy friend that some obscure holiday is today?

“It’s National plush animal lovers day!”

“Today is national hug a tennis player day!”

“I think tomorrow is national dress like a nerd day… so.. be yourself!”

There are tons of Nationally obscure holidays like that and today, I am giving you the opportunity to be the crazy friend that mentions them. And also some ideas on how to celebrate them. (For November at least! Tell me if you like it 🙂 )

November 2nd– Look for circles day: I mean I suppose this sounds sort of lame, but imagine getting unnecessarily excited about it and pointing out random circles with an unnecessary amount of energy to your friends and acquaintances, and even strangers. The point is people will be happy you are putting in such an effort to look for circles. So happy that their happiness may bubble out of them and they will laugh. Bonus points if you wear a circle themed outfit!

November 3rd-Sandwich day: Eat a sandwich for breakfast, a sandwich for lunch and a sandwich for dinner. Inquire what kind of sandwich everyone else is eating. If they don’t have a sandwich, ask them why “It’s national sandwich day, why would you skip a sandwich opportunity today of all days?” Switch the conversations back to sandwiches as often as possible.

November 7th- National book lovers day: Not too obscure but how cute is it they have a day for that. Read books. Talk about books. Adore Books. Be a book.

1. Open a blank Document
2. Set a stop watch or your mobile phone timer to 5 or 10 minutes, whichever challenge you prefer.
3. Your topic is at the foot of this post BUT DO NOT SCROLL DOWN TO SEE IT UNTIL YOU ARE READY WITH YOUR TIMER!!!
4. Once you start writing do not stop until the alarm sounds!
5. Do not cheat by going back and correcting spelling and grammar using spell check (it is only meant for you to reflect on your own control of sensible thought flow and for you to reflect on your ability to write with correct spelling and grammar.)
6. You may or may not pay attention to punctuation or capitals.
7. At the end of your post write down ‘No. of words = ____” to give an idea of how much you can write within the time frame.
8. Do not forget to copy paste the entire passage on your blog post with a new topic for your nominees and copy paste these rules with your nomination (at least five (5) bloggers).

“Hello” I said as I answered my cell phone.

“Yes,” Said a nervous voice on the other end “I mean Hi…Hey…Whats up?”

It was my friend, Anthony. I had no idea why he was calling me at 10:00 at night!

“Wait” He said with a moments realization “This actually went through?”

“Yeah” I said smirking “What did you think would happen when you pressed the call button?”

“Well I don’t know, I didn’t know I actually pressed it for your information” He laughed nervously

“Well what were you doing then?” I interrogated.

“I was… Practicing!” He stammered.

“Practicing for what!” I pressed.

“For.. umm…asking you something…I wanted to do it right… so if you make me do it now… and I mess up, I haven’t had enough practice”

I rolled my eyes in a playful way, not that he could see. “Go on” I encouraged “I understand if you aren’t well enough practiced, but you may as well get it over with!”

He sighed dramatically, as if in defeat “Okay” He said in a slightly strained voice “Just do it” I heard him mutter to himself.

“Will you…” He began “Perhaps… go on a…” He gasped and coughed. Ever so dramatic Anthony. “DATE WITH ME”

So, the other day I was texting with my sister, and we were bored so decided to play the take turns writing sentences to tell a story game. (Some of them ended up a couple of sentences, and a couple of them half sentences.)

I asked her if I could post the results on here, and she said yes. It got a little bit… interesting shall we say?

So here, I give you, The story of the rabbit dragon king!

Sister: Once upon a time,

Me: There was a world just like ours today, in fact, it was today!

Sister: Mr Fluffybunnykins was in the meadows of Macadamia.

Me: He was sure it was just another day, but alas, something was going to happen.

Sister: The dragon of Grand Central Macadamia was just awakening!

Me: Mr. Fluffy Bunny Guy was just nibbling at the macadamia fields, as the dragon spread his large wings and coughed a puff of flames.

Sister: It burnt his fluffy tail off!

Me: The rabbit was mortified, as tailless bunnies were often shunned in his community, so he knew he had to do something about it!

Sister: He got a false tail!

Me: So, he could function for a short while, but after a while he noticed other animals with fake tails too.

Sister: He was happy once again!

Me: BUT HE FORMS A GROUP WHO ALSO HAS GRUDGES AGAINST THE DRAGON AND WANTS TO SEEK VENGEANCE UPON HIS FIERY SOUL!!!

Sister: He and everyone with a false tail charged up the mountain AND…

Me: None of them knew any doctors so they all jumped on the dragon, which really only tickle him as he had a bunch of rabbits and squirrels and field mice were skittering across his scales.

Sister: The dragon laughed so hard he cried.

Me: He sneezed and produced a giant flame.

Sister: Killing half of the village.

Me: He felt so bad he started sobbing.

Sister:They had to spear the dragon in the side, unleashing 1,000 gallons of blood and skinned him like a buck.

Me: Mr. Fluffy bunny tail took the dragons tail spikes and made them into a crown, and used a piece of his leathery skin as a cape.

Sister: He was king of the dragons.

Me: The end!

Obviously the story took an unexpectedly violent turn. But, I guess the animals wanted to stop the fiery injustice that was overtaking the village…

I really don’t know what happened, one minute my sister wants the story to end in a happy go lucky way, and I try and make it a bit more interesting and suddenly she decides “DRAGON DEATH!!! KILL THE DRAGON!!! UNLEASH ALL THE BLOOD!!! VIOLENCE!!!!

(I love you, sister)

Anyways, that’s the end! I hope you enjoyed it…

Thank you, sister, for the story writing and letting me post this! You are super!
